Hi Negative,
I I think you may be comparing the wrong stories. I looked at the New International Version (one of the most widely distributed versions) and all four gospel accounts had five loaves and two fishes. In my Bible Matthew 14:19 reads: "And he [Jesus] directed the people to sit down on the grass. Take the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaen, he gave thanks and broke the loaves." There is another miracle story where Jesus feeds a crowd of four thousand with seven loaves of bread and some fish. That story is in Matthew 15:29-39. Matthew's account of the feeding of the five thousand takes place in Matthew 14:13-21. This story is the one recorded in all four gospels.
